The basis of Christianity is belief. Faith.

So why would/should someone who does not believe be permitted to run it? If I was part of such a Union I would have little faith (pardon the pun) in the hierachy if they were not also Christians.

Would a Man United fan be permitted to run an Arsenal supporter's club?
